Dr. Ravi Chandra Rushi
I am currently serving as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital, Nalgonda, where I specialize in the diagnosis, treatment, and long-term management of various ano-rectal disorders. My clinical focus lies in treating conditions such as piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), rectal polyps, and pilonidal sinus using time-tested Ayurvedic approaches like Ksharasutra, Agnikarma, and other para-surgical procedures outlined in classical texts. With a deep commitment to patient care, I emphasize a holistic treatment protocol that combines precise surgical techniques with Ayurvedic formulations, dietary guidance, and lifestyle modifications to reduce recurrence and promote natural healing. I strongly believe in integrating traditional Ayurvedic wisdom with patient-centric care, which allows for better outcomes and long-lasting relief. Working at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital has provided me with the opportunity to handle a wide range of surgical and post-operative cases. My approach is rooted in classical Shalya Tantra, enhanced by modern diagnostic insights. I stay updated with advancements in Ayurvedic surgery while adhering to evidence-based practices to ensure safety and efficacy. Beyond clinical practice, I am also committed to raising awareness about Ayurvedic proctology and promoting non-invasive treatments for conditions often mismanaged or overtreated by modern surgical approaches. I strive to make Ayurvedic surgical care accessible, effective, and aligned with the needs of today’s patients, while preserving the essence of our traditional healing system. Through continuous learning and compassionate practice, I aim to offer every patient a respectful, informed, and outcome-driven experience rooted in Ayurveda.

Dr. Gursimran Jeet Singh
I am Dr. Gursimran Jeet Singh, born and raised in Punjab where culture and traditions almost naturally guided me toward Ayurveda. From very early days I felt more drawn to natural ways of healing, and this curiosity finally led me to pursue Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery (BAMS) at Shri Dhanwantry Ayurvedic College, Chandigarh—an institution known for shaping strong Ayurvedic physicians. During those years I learned not only the classical texts and treatment methods, but also how to look at health through a very practical, human lense. For the past five years I worked in clinical practice, where patients come with wide range of concerns—from chronic digestion troubles to autoimmune illness—and I try to integrate both Ayurveda and modern medical knowledge to give them the most complete care I can. Sometimes western diagnostics help me to understand the stage of disease, while Ayurveda helps me design treatment that address root cause. This bridging approach is not always easy, but I believe it’s necessary for today’s health challanges. Currently I am also pursuing higher studies in Panchakarma therapy. Panchakarma is an area I feel very strongly about—it is not just detox, it is a whole system of cleansing, rejuvenation, rebalancing, and I want to deepen my expertise here. In practice, I combine Panchakarma with lifestyle guidance, diet planning, herbal remedies, yoga and mindfulness practices depending on what a patient actually needs at that moment. No two cases are same, and Ayurveda reminds me daily that healing must be personal. My approach is always focused on root-cause management rather than temporary relief. Diet, herbs, therapeutic oils, meditation routines, and simple daily habits—they all work together when chosen rightly. Sometimes results come slow, sometimes faster, but I try to keep care sustainable and compassionate. Helping someone regain energy, sleep better, or reduce pain, that is the real achievement in my journey. And I continue learning, because Ayurveda is deep, it doesn’t finish with one degree or one training, it grow with every patient and every experiance.My specialties lie in treating a range of chronic and lifestyle-related conditions using Ayurveda’s time-tested principles, tailored to each individual’s unique constitution (Prakriti). I have significant expertise in managing digestive disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), acid reflux, constipation, diabetes, obesity and inflammatory bowel diseases. I also specialize in addressing stress-related and mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, insomnia, and burnout, which are increasingly common in today’s fast-paced world. By integrating therapies like Shirodhara (oil pouring on the forehead) to calm the nervous system, Abhyanga (herbal oil massages) to balance Vata dosha, and adaptogenic herbs like Ashwagandha and Brahmi, I help patients achieve mental clarity and emotional resilience. In the field of musculoskeletal and joint health, I excel in treating conditions like arthritis (rheumatoid and osteoarthritis), back pain, sciatica, and sports injuries. Using therapies such as Kati Basti (localized oil retention on the lower back) and potent anti-inflammatory herbs like Guggulu and Shallaki, I focus on reducing inflammation, improving joint mobility, and strengthening tissues. My treatments have helped many patients, particularly those seeking non-invasive alternatives, regain mobility and reduce pain through a blend of internal medications and external therapies. Skin disorders are another key area of my practice, where I address conditions like eczema, psoriasis, acne, and pigmentation issues holistically. By focusing on blood purification and balancing Pitta dosha and detoxifying Panchakarma techniques like Raktamokshana (bloodletting). My approach targets dietary and lifestyle triggers, offering sustainable results for clients who previously relied on temporary solutions like topical steroids. My dual expertise in Ayurveda and modern medicine allows me to create integrative treatment plans that are both effective and safe. I am deeply committed to patient education, empowering individuals to embrace Ayurvedic principles for sustainable health. Through this online platform, I am excited to offer virtual consultations, making the profound benefits of Ayurveda accessible to all. Whether you seek relief from a specific condition or aim to enhance overall vitality, I look forward to guiding you on your journey to balance and well-being with compassion and expertise.

Hello Terretta,

I can understand your concern about losing bone density — also known as osteopenia or osteoporosis. It is a gradual process where bones become weak, brittle, and more prone to fracture. But dont worry we are here to help you out😊

✅AYURVEDIC PLAN OF TREATMENT

These medicines help strengthen bones naturally and improve calcium absorption:

1. Lakshadi Guggulu –1-0-1 after food ( Promotes bone formation and healing; excellent for osteoporosis.)

2. Asthimitra vati 1-0-1 after food – (Natural calcium supplements, easily absorbed and non-irritating to the stomach.)

3. Ashwagandha + Shatavari + Bala –½ tsp of each in warm milk at bed time ( Rejuvenates tissues, supports hormonal balance, reduces fatigue.)

✅DIET FOR BONE STRENGTH

Include sesame seeds (til), almonds, dates, cow’s milk, ghee, drumstick, leafy greens, and ragi regularly.

Take warm milk with turmeric, ashwagandha powder, or Shatavari at night for better calcium assimilation.

Avoid excess tea, coffee, and cold or dry foods that increase Vata and weaken bones.

Get regular sunlight exposure (15–20 minutes daily) for Vitamin D.

✅LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION

Avoid long fasting, stress, and late nights — these aggravate Vata.

Practice Abhyanga (daily oil massage) with Dhanwantharam Taila or Ksheerabala Taila to nourish bones and joints.

Yes, bone density can improve naturally without daily injections — by-

Strengthening digestion and calcium metabolism Nourishing Asthi Dhatu with herbs and proper diet Following Vata-shamana (balancing) lifestyle and therapies

With consistent Ayurvedic care, nutrition, and mild physical activity, bone strength can gradually return and fractures can be prevented.

Wishing you a good health😊

Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate

I am someone who believes Ayurveda isn’t just some old system — it’s alive, and actually still works when you use it the way it's meant to be used. My practice mostly revolves around proper Ayurvedic diagnosis (rogi & roga pariksha types), Panchakarma therapies, and ya also a lot of work with herbal medicine — not just prescribing but sometimes preparing stuff myself when needed. I really like that hands-on part actually, like knowing where the herbs came from and how they're processed... changes everything. One of the things I pay a lot of attention to is how a person's lifestyle is playing into their condition. Food, sleep, bowel habits, even small emotional patterns that people don't even realize are affecting their digestion or immunity — I look at all of it before jumping to treatment. Dietary therapy isn’t just telling people to eat less fried food lol. It’s more about timing, combinations, seasonal influence, and what suits their prakriti. That kind of detail takes time, and sometimes patients don’t get why it matters at first.. but slowly it clicks. Panchakarma — I do it when I feel it's needed. Doesn’t suit everyone all the time, but in the right case, it really clears the stuck layers. But again, it's not magic — people need to prep properly and follow instructions. That's where strong communication matters. I make it a point to explain everything without dumping too much Sanskrit unless they’re curious. I also try to keep things simple, like I don’t want patients feeling intimidated or overwhelmed with 10 things at once. We go step by step — sometimes slow, sometimes quick depending on the case. There’s no “one protocol fits all” in Ayurveda and frankly I get bored doing same thing again and again. Whether it’s a fever that won’t go or long-term fatigue or gut mess — I usually go deep into what's behind it. Surface-level fixes don’t last. I rather take the time than rush into wrong herbs. It’s more work, ya, but makes a diff in long run.

Losing bone density, known as osteoporosis or osteopenia, can be concerning, and while daily interventions like medications are common, Ayurveda offers complementary approaches to support bone health. The key in Ayurveda is balancing your doshas, especially Vata, which when aggravated, can lead to bone weakening.

Start by incorporating a diet rich in calcium and magnesium. Include foods like sesame seeds, almonds, leafy greens, amaranth, ragi (finger millet), and dairy such as milk and ghee. These are essential in supporting dhatu (tissue) replenishment, particularly the asthi dhatu which correlates to bone. Ensure you are consuming warm, nourishing meals to support your agni (digestive fire) which is vital for nutrient absorption.

Abhyanga, or oil massage, with warm sesame or mustard oil can be helpful in reducing Vata and increasing bone strength. Try to do this at least 2-3 times a week. Additionally, practice moderate, weight-bearing exercises like yoga or walking to naturally stimulate bone density. Avoid excessive effort or strain, as it could aggravate Vata further.

Herbs such as Ashwagandha and Shatavari are traditionally used to support bone health and general vitality. Triphala can be beneficial in ensuring digestive efficiency and clearing any ama (toxins) from the body. Consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner to determine the right combinations for your constitution.

Ensure that your routine includes adequate rest and stress management, as stress can imbalance Vata and Pitta, impacting bone health.

It’s always important to monitor your bone health with your healthcare provider, as these Ayurvedic methods work best as a complementary approach, not replacing necessary medical treatments. If bone density loss is severe, medical intervention may be necessary to prevent fractures or other complications.

HELLO TERRETTA,

As we age, our bones may become weaker and less dense. This is called osteopenia or osteoporosis . In Ayurvedic terms, this is considered a Vata-dominated condition affecting asthi dhatu (bones)

WHY IT HAPPENS -natural aging reduces bone formation -deficiency of calcium, vitamin D, and other minerals -hormonal changes, especially in postmenopausal women or men after 60 -chronic illness or long term medication use -sedentry lifestyle or lack of exercise

SIGNS YOU MAY NOTICE -bone fracture from minor falls -pain in the back, hips, or knees -stooped posture -brittle nails and hair often linked with vata imbalane

KEY POINTS= bones are living tisues- they can slowly regenerate and strengthen with proper care, though this process is gradual

TREATMENT GOALS -Strenghten asthi dhatu (bones) -balance vata dosha reduce brittleness and degenration -support body immunity and overall vitality -prevent further bone loss and fracture -enhance circulation and digestion for better nutrient absorption

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm milk twice daily for 3-6 months =strenghtens bones and muscles, reduce sstress

2) SHATAVARI CAPSULES= 1 cap twice daily aftermeals =supports bone marrow, hormone balance, and tissue regeneration

3) GOKSHURA DECOCTION= 30 ml daily twice =strenghtens urinary system,muscles, and bones

4) GUDUCHI GHAN VATI= 2 tabs twice daily after meals =detoxifies supports immunity, improves bone metabolism

5) YASHTIMADHU POWDER= 3 gm with warm milk daily =tissue regeneration anti inflammatory

6) CHYAWANPRASHA= 2 tsp daily morning =general rejuvenation, immunity stregnth

EXTERNAL THERAPIES 1) OIL MASSAGE -warm sesame or almond oil mixed with bala churna daily whole body = nourishes bones and joints, improves circulation, balances vata

2) STEAM THERAPY -promotes circulation and nutrient delivery to tissye- do after massage then take bath

3) BASTI (medicated enema) -vata nourishing oils or decoction given via enema =strengthens bones, joints, and nervous system =done under Ayurveda practioner supervision typically 14-21 days

YOGA ASANAS= focus on posture, balance, flexibility, and bone strength -tadasana= improves posture, strengthen legs -vrikshasana= improves balance, strengthens legs and spine -trikonasana= stretches spine, strengthens bones -bhujangasana= strengthens spine and back muscles -setu bandhasana= strengthens hips, back and pelvis

PRANAYAM -Anulom vilom= balances vata -bhramari= reduces stress and promotes relaxation

DIET -Calcium rich foods= milk, yogurt, panner, cheese, sesame seeds, almonds -Leafy greens= spinach, methi, drumstick leaves -proteins sources= lentils, mung beans, eggs, fish if non veg -Whole grains= barely, oats,quinoa -Health fats= ghee, sesame oil, almond oil -spices for digestion and absorption= turmeric, ginger, black pepper

AVOID -excess salt, refined sugar, processed foods -exces caffeine or alcohol

HOME REMEDIES -sesame and jaggery mixture = mix 1 tsp roasted sesame seeds + 1 tsp jaggery daily -milk with turmeric and ashwagandha= strengthens bones and immunity -almonds soaked overnight= 6-8 daily for calcium -bone broth = provides minerals for bone regeneration

INVESTIGATIONS -DEXA sacn= measures bone density -serum calcium, vitamin D, and phosphate levels -hormoal profile especially in postmenopausal women -kidney function test

-Bone loss can improve gradually with consistent lifestyle changes, diet, yoga and ayurvedic therapy -consistency is keu- ayurveda therapy is slow but holistic -avoid fractures by taking care with movements, using support if needed and maintaining strong muscles -Combining modern monitoring like DEXA, with ayurvedic care gives the safest and most effective results -focus on nutrition, daily exercise , stress management, and herbal suport- these forms the foundation of bone health Ayurveda treats the body as whole, so bone regeneration is supported internally and externally

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

Losing bone density, also known as osteoporosis or osteopenia in milder forms, is a concern that can be addressed through specific lifestyle adjustments and consistent practices rooted in Siddha-Ayurvedic tradition. While injections might be necessary for severe cases, Ayurveda offers natural methods that might help in managing and improving bone health over time.

Firstly, focus on your diet to strengthen the asthi dhatu, which corresponds to the bone tissue in Ayurvedic terms. Include calcium-rich foods like sesame seeds, almonds, leafy greens, and dairy products if you’re not sensitive to them. These help nourish the asthi dhatu.

Herbs such as Hadjod (Cissus quadrangularis), Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera), and Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus) are known to support bone health and can be taken as supplements in consultation with a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner.

Stay active by incorporating gentle weight-bearing exercises like walking or yoga. These activities stimulate bone regeneration. Practicing sun salutations (Surya Namaskar) in the morning may also help improve circulation and vitality, which is beneficial for bone health.

Ensure you’re getting enough sunlight for vitamin D synthesis, crucial for calcium absorption and bone health. Spend about 15-20 minutes in the sun daily, preferably in the morning.

Consider incorporating Bhasma or medicated powders under professional guidance, as they can help in maintaining proper mineral balance in the body.

Hydration is essential, so drink water boiled with herbs like ginger or cumin, as it aids the digestive fire (agni) and helps proper nutrient absorption.

However, if your bone density loss is significant and causing symptoms like fractures or severe pain, it’s critical to consult a healthcare provider. Seek a balance between traditional practices and necessary medical interventions, ensuring you’re doing what’s best for your overall health.

Dr. Maitri Bhavesh Kumar Acharya
I am Dr. Maitri, currently in my 2nd year of MD in Dravyaguna, and yeah, I run my own Ayurvedic clinic in Ranoli where I’ve been seeing patients for 2 years now. Honestly, what pulled me into this path deeper is how powerful herbs really are—when used right. Not just randomly mixing churnas but actually understanding their rasa, virya, vipaka etc. That’s kinda my zone, where textbook knowledge meets day-to-day case handling. My practice revolves around helping people with PCOD, acne, dandruff, back pain, stiffness in knees or joints that never seem to go away. And I don’t jump to giving a long list of medicines straight away—first I spend time figuring out their prakriti, their habits, food cycle, what triggers what… basically all the small stuff that gets missed. Then comes the plan—herbs (single or compound), some diet reshuffling, and always some lifestyle nudges. Sometimes they’re tiny, like sleep timing. Sometimes big like proper seasonal detox. Being into Dravyaguna helps me get into the depth of herbs more confidently. I don’t just look at the symptom—I think okay what guna will counter this? Should the drug be snigdha, ushna, tikta? Is there a reverse vipaka that’ll hurt the agni? I ask these questions before writing any combo. That’s made a huge diff in outcomes. Like I had this case of chronic urticaria that would flare up every week, and just tweaking the herbs based on sheetala vs ushna nature... helped calm the system in 3 weeks flat. Not magic, just logic. I also work with women who are struggling with hormonal swings, mood, delayed periods or even unexplained breakouts. When hormones go haywire, the skin shows, digestion slows, and mind gets foggy too. I keep my approach full-circle—cleansing, balancing, rejuvenating. No quick fixes, I tell them early on. What I’m hoping to do more of now is make Ayurveda feel practical. Not overwhelming. Just simple tools—ahara, vihara, aushadha—used consistently, with some trust in the body’s own healing. I’m still learning, still refining, but honestly, seeing people feel in control of their health again—that’s what keeps me rooted to this.

Dr. Snehal Tasgaonkar
I am an Ayurvedic physician with around 7 yrs clinical experience, though honestly—feels like I’ve lived double that in patient hours. I studied from a govt. medical college (reputed one) where I got deep into classical Ayurvedic texts n clinical logic. I treat everything from chronic stuff like arthritis, IBS, eczema... to more sudden conditions that just pop up outta nowhere. I try to approach each case by digging into the *why*, not just the *what*. I mean—anyone can treat pain, but if you don’t catch the doshic imbalance or metabolic root, it just comes bak right? I use Nadi Pariksha a lot, but also other classical signs to map prakriti-vikruti, dhatu status n agni condition... you know the drill. I like making people *understand* their own health too. Doesn’t make sense to hand meds without giving them tools to prevent a relapse. My Panchakarma training’s been a core part of my work. I do Abhyanga, Swedana, Basti etc regularly—not just detox but also as restorative therapy. Actually seen cases where patients came in exhausted, foggy... and post-Shodhana, they're just lit up. That part never gets old. Also I always tie diet & lifestyle changes into treatment. It’s non-negotiable for me, bcs long-term balance needs daily changes, not just clinic visits. I like using classical formulations but I stay practical too—if someone's not ready for full-scale protocol, I try building smaller habits. I believe healing’s not just abt treating symptoms—it’s abt helping the body reset, then stay there. I’m constantly refining what I do, trying to blend timeless Ayurvedic theory with real-time practical needs of today’s patients. Doesn’t always go perfect lol, but most times we see real shifts. That’s what keeps me going.

Dr. Surya Bhagwati
I am a Senior Ayurveda Physician with more than 28 years in this field — and trust me, it still surprises me how much there is to learn every single day. Over these years, I’ve had the chance to treat over 1 lakh patients (probably more by now honestly), both through in-person consults and online. Some come in with a mild cough, others with conditions no one’s been able to figure out for years. Each case brings its own rhythm, and that’s where real Ayurveda begins. I still rely deeply on classical tools — *Nadi Pariksha*, *Roga-Rogi Pariksha*, proper *prakriti-vikriti* mapping — not just ticking symptoms into a list. I don’t believe in ready-made cures or generic charts. Diagnosis needs attention. I look at how the disease behaves *inside* that specific person, which doshas are triggering what, and where the imbalance actually started (hint: it’s usually not where the pain is). Over the years I’ve worked with pretty much all age groups and all kinds of health challenges — from digestive upsets & fevers to chronic, autoimmune, hormonal, metabolic and degenerative disorders. Arthritis, diabetes, PCOD, asthma, thyroid... but also things like unexplained fatigue or joint swelling that comes and goes randomly. Many of my patients had already “tried everything else” before they walked into Ayurveda, and watching their systems respond slowly—but surely—is something I don’t take lightly. My line of treatment usually combines herbal formulations (classical ones, not trendy ones), Panchakarma detox when needed, and realistic dietary and lifestyle corrections. Long-term healing needs long-term clarity — not just short bursts of symptom relief. And honestly, I tell patients that too. I also believe patient education isn’t optional. I explain things. Why we’re doing virechana, why the oil changed mid-protocol, why we pause or shift the meds after a few weeks. I want people to feel involved, not confused. Ayurveda works best when the patient is part of the process, not just receiving instructions. Even now I keep learning — through texts, talks, patient follow-ups, sometimes even mistakes that taught me what not to do. And I’m still committed, still fully into it. Because for me, this isn’t just a job. It’s a lifelong responsibility — to restore balance, protect *ojas*, and help each person live in tune with themselves. That’s the real goal.

Dr. Garima Mattu
I am working in Ayurveda for about 2 years now, mainly around gynecological problems, which I honestly feel are way more common than most people realise. I see a lot of women struggling silently with issues like irregular periods, cramps that just don’t stop, mood swings, PCOS kind of symptoms... sometimes they come in after trying a bunch of stuff already n nothing really works long-term. That’s where I try to bring in a more rooted approach. I use a mix of Ayurvedic principles, dietetics (like food based on dosha & body type etc), and yoga therapy to manage these conditions. It’s not just about reducing pain during periods or balancing hormones—it’s more like trying to understand what’s causing the imbalances in the first place. I spend time trying to map the prakriti-vikriti profile and see how stress, food, daily habits are impacting the cycle. I don’t rush things, coz honestly healing isn't linear and doesn't follow some fixed timeline. And not everyone wants to jump into panchakarma straightaway either, right? Also pain management is a big part of my work. Whether it’s period cramps or pelvic pain, or even chronic stuff tied to digestion and fatigue, I look at how we can ease that naturally. Sometimes through simple things like castor oil packs, or subtle shifts in routine, other times I may recommend herbs or formulations. Yoga plays a huge role too, esp. when the body feels stuck or inflamed. Not gym-style yoga, more therapeutic.. breath n movement syncing with dosha correction, that kind of thing. To be honest, I’m still learning—Ayurveda’s depth is huge, and I feel like I’m just getting started. But what I do know is, when I see women begin to trust their own body’s rhythm again, that’s really powerful. Makes all the effort worth it. Even small relief matters. It's not perfect, sometimes things take longer, sometimes we need to adjust mid-way... but it's real.

Dr. Akshay Negi
I am currently pursuing my MD in Panchakarma, and by now I carry 3 yrs of steady clinical experience. Panchakarma for me is not just detox or some fancy retreat thing — it’s the core of how Ayurveda actually works to reset the system. During my journey I’ve handled patients with arthritis flares, chronic back pain, migraine, digestive troubles, hormonal imbalance, even skin and stress-related disorders... and in almost every case Panchakarma gave space for deeper healing than medicines alone. Working hands-on with procedures like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Nasya, and Raktamokshana gave me a lot of practical insight. It's not just about performing the therapy, but understanding timing, patient strength, diet before and after, and how their mind-body reacts to cleansing. Some respond quick, others struggle with initial discomfort, and that’s where real patient support matters. I learnt to watch closely, adjust small details, and guide them through the whole process safely. My approach is always patient-centric. I don’t believe in pushing the same package to everyone. I first assess prakriti, agni, mental state, lifestyle, then decide what works best. Sometimes full Panchakarma isn’t even needed — simple modifications, herbs, or limited therapy sessions can bring results. And when full shodhana is required, I plan it in detail with proper purvakarma & aftercare, cause that’s what makes outcomes sustainable. The last few years made me more confident not just in procedures but in the philosophy behind them. Panchakarma isn’t a quick fix — it demands patience, discipline, trust. But when done right, it gives relief that lasts, and that’s why I keep refining how I practice it.

Dr. Snehal Vidhate
I am Dr. Snehal Vidhate, born n brought up in Maharashtra—and honestly, for as long as I remember I’ve felt this pull towards Ayurveda. Not the fancy version ppl throw around, but the deep, real kind that actually helps ppl. I did my BAMS from YMT Ayurvedic Medical College in Kharghar. That’s where I got my basics strong—like really studied the shastras, understood prakriti, doshas, the whole deal. Not just crammed theory but started to see how it shows up in real lives. After finishing BAMS, I got into this one-year certificate course at Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth, Delhi—honestly a turning point. I was super lucky to learn Kerala Ayurveda from my Guru, Prof. Dr. G.G. Gangadharan. He’s got this way of seeing things... simple but deep. That time with him taught me more than any textbook ever could. It kinda reshaped how I look at health, healing n how precise Ayurveda can be when you respect its roots. Right now I’m doing my MD in Panchakarma from SDM Ayurveda College, Bangalore. This place is like a hub for serious Ayurveda work. The Panchakarma training here? Super intense. We go deep into detoxification & rasayana therapy—not just theory again, but hands-on. I’m learning to blend classical techniques with today’s clinical demands.. like how to make Vamana or Basti actually doable in modern patient setups. My current practice is really about merging tradition with logic. Whether it’s chronic skin issues, gut problems, stress burnout or hormone stuff—my goal is to get to the root, not just hush the symptoms. I use Panchakarma when needed, but also a lot of ahara-vihara tweaks, medhya herbs, sometimes just slowing ppl down a bit helps. I really believe Ayurveda’s power is in its simplicity when done right. I don’t try to fix ppl—I work *with* them. And honestly, every patient teaches me something back.

Dr. Atul Painuli
I am Vaidya Atul Painuli, currently working as an Ayurvedic Consultant at Patanjali Chikitsalaya, Delhi... been here a while now. My focus from the start—over 10+ yrs in this field—has been to stay true to what Ayurveda *actually* is, not just surface-level remedies or buzzwords. I’ve treated a wide mix of patients, from people battling chronic illnesses to those just looking to fix their lifestyle before it leads to disease (which is v underrated tbh). During these years, I kinda shaped my practice around the idea that one solution never fits all. Whether it’s diabetes, gut disorders, stress-related problems or hormone issues—everything goes back to the root, the *nidana*. I usually go with classic Ayurvedic meds, but I mix it up with Panchakarma, diet tweaks and daily routine correction, depending on the case. Most of the time, ppl don’t even realize how much their habits are feeding into the problem. It’s not just about herbs or massages... though those are important too. At Patanjali Chikitsalaya, I see patients from literally all walks of life—office-goers, elderly, even young kids sometimes. Everyone’s got something diff going on, which keeps me grounded. What I try to do is not just treat the symptoms but help ppl *see* what’s happening in their bodies and minds. Like Ayurveda says—if your digestion, sleep and emotions are off... then eventually health’s gonna wobble. I don’t promise quick results but I do stay with my patients through the process, adjusting things based on how they respond. That part makes a big difference I think. For me, Ayurveda isn’t a “last resort” kinda thing—it’s a system that can prevent 80% of the lifestyle diseases ppl suffer from today, if done right. My goal? Just to keep doing this in a way that feels real, grounded, and actually helps ppl—not overwhelm them with too much jargon or fear. Just practical, clean, honest healing.

Dr. Prasad Pentakota
I am Dr. P. Prasad, and I’ve been in this field for 20+ years now, working kinda across the board—General Medicine, Neurology, Dermatology, Cardiology—you name it. Didn’t start out thinking I’d end up spanning that wide, but over time, each area sort of pulled me in deeper. And honestly, I like that mix. It lets me look at a patient not just through one lens but a whole system-wide view... makes more sense when treating something that won’t fit neatly in one category. I’ve handled everything from day-to-day stuff like hypertension, diabetes, or skin infections to more serious neuro and cardiac problems. Some cases are quick—diagnose, treat, done. Others take time, repeated check-ins, figuring out what’s really going on beneath those usual symptoms. And that’s where the detail matters. I’m pretty big on thorough diagnosis and patient education—because half the problem is ppl just not knowing what’s happening inside their own body. What’s changed for me over years isn’t just knowledge, it’s how much I lean on listening. If you miss what someone didn’t say, you might also miss their actual illness. And idk, after seeing it play out so many times, I do believe combining updated medical practice with basic empathy really shifts outcomes. Doesn’t have to be complicated... it just has to be consistent. I keep up with research too—new drugs, diagnostics, cross-specialty updates etc., not because it’s trendy, but cuz it’s necessary. Patients come in better read now than ever. You can’t afford to fall behind. The end goal’s the same tho—help them heal right, not just fast. Ethical practice, evidence-based, and sometimes just being there to explain what’s going on. That’s what I stick to.

Dr. Suresh Bhat
I am the Chief Consulting Physician and CEO at Ayurbhoomi Health Care, where for the past 7+ yrs I have been fully into practicing classical, pure Ayurveda without diluting its roots. My journey has been focused on working as a Rasa Vaidya — dealing with herbo-mineral formulations, rasaushadhis, and classical therapies that demand precision but also give powerful results when used properly. At Ayurbhoomi, we specialize in chronic illnesses that usually trouble people for years — arthritis, digestive disorders, skin problems, neurological issues, hormonal imbalances, even lifestyle diseases like diabetes or obesity. Many patients come after trying multiple treatments with little relief, and that’s where Ayurveda shows its strength. I create treatment plans that combine classical chikitsa, Panchakarma where needed, yoga, and pathya-apathya guidance. Sometimes simple changes work, sometimes it takes months of close monitoring — but each case has to be personalized, no shortcuts. Over the years I’ve seen how blending Ayurveda with Yoga therapy creates more sustainable outcomes, especially for pain management, stress-related conditions, and metabolic disorders. Running Ayurbhoomi also means ensuring that quality of care is consistent, that patients feel safe, and that therapies are done with proper protocols. Managing both clinical care and administrative responsibilities hasn’t always been easy, but it helped me build a clearer vision of what true Ayurveda-based healthcare can look like in today’s world. My approach is always patient-first — rooted in authentic texts, practical in application, and guided by the idea that long-term healing happens only when the root cause is corrected. Ayurveda is not just about treating a disease name, it’s about restoring balance in body & mind together. That’s what I try to keep alive in every consultation and every treatment plan.

Dr. Janvi Dhera
I am a doctor who completed CCH and CGO from Wadia hospital, and that training gave me exposure not just in theory but also in handling patients with very diverse needs. Over time I have treated many cases of chronic skin conditions, gut related disorders and also anorectal issues like piles, fissure and similar complaints. Each case felt different, no two patients respond the same way, and I learnt how to adapt treatment according to prakriti, diet habits, stress levels. Skin problems always catch attention first — psoriasis, eczema, acne that stays for years — but I understood that they often start from inside, from digestion or blood impurities. Gut issues like acidity, constipation, IBS are also common in my practice, and here small corrections in food timing or herbs can change a lot. Anorectal cases, especially piles and fissure, are painful both physically and mentally for patients, so I try to bring a treatment plan that is safe, non-invasive when possible, and focused on long term relief not just temporary fixes. Working with such variety of disorders also taught me patience. Some patients want fast results, but Ayurveda needs time to clean the root cause. I explain them carefully, sometimes repeating many times, that slow healing is stronger healing. Building that trust is important. My approach is always to combine herbal formulations, diet advice, and lifestyle correction with procedures when required, to ensure balance is restored and maintained. For me, Ayurveda is not a set of ready remedies but a flexible science that adapts to each person. Whether it’s skin, gut or anorectal problems, my focus stays on listening, understanding and guiding patients with clarity, honesty and steady support.
